The Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSF) is planning to use a $990,000 State grant to teach teens to sell Obamacare on their families.

Teens in the school district will act as sort of “unpaid propagandizers” for the Obamacare effort, according to an article from The Heartland Institute.

“Teens are part of a ‘pilot’ program to test whether young people can be trained as messengers to deliver outreach and limited education to family and friends in and around their homes,” said Gayle Pollard-Terry, a LAUSD spokesman, in an email to Heartland. “Teens will be educating adults that they already know (e.g., family or friends) and not other adults.

If the program is successful, stand by for more Federal initiatives to use schoolchildren as active propagandists for the State. No longer will they simply be passive recipients of government propaganda for seven hours each day.

If children are, as people like to say, the future, perhaps another of Orwell’s passages in 1984 is appropriate: “If you want a vision of the future… imagine a boot stamping on a human face, forever.”
